TUESDAYS ELECTION.

We think that with the results OF
last Tuesday it would be policy for
tie Republicans to give up all idea
of trying to carry New York, in
1888.
With New York in line for the
Democracy and the South still solid
the Democrats will have 1S9 out of
the POL electoral votes, necessary
to elect. Indiana has Is electoral
votes, New Jersey and Connecti-
cut 6. Here is the battle ground OF
next Fall. The Republicans car
ried the Indiana legislature last
year by large majority and on
Tuesday. New Jersey followed suit.
The Democratic victory in New
York does not, therefore, settle the
contest.
The Republicans have lost New
York through Conkling and Plat,
and if these men would come out
of their holes and quit sulking New
York could also be counted Repub-
lican. We believe that the result
of Tuesday will turn many against
them and may affect the result il
1888, but the safer plan would b.
not to count on New York at al
and concentrate the efforts at othe
points.
There is but one way to break vi
the Solid South, and that is by tn
Republican National party adopting
the American plank in its platform
This is the solution of the prob
lem if the party leaders will onl.
quit catering for the foreign vot
and not be afraid to stand on

THEN AND NOW.

The last volume OF BancroftS |
History OF the Pacific States gives
an intensely interesting history OF
the early politics of San Francisco, |
when the ballot suffers defeated
the will of the people with ballot
boxes with slides and false bottoms,
and when the criminal element be-
came SO lawless and arrogant that
outraged business men hung the
rascals in the Plaza and secured the
city of the roughs, thieves and muir
derers.
1t is somewhat of coincidence
that the book should be issued just
at time when the city of San
Francisco is again struggling with
band of rascals who have a much
more complete control over the city
than did the outlaws of early times.
Municipal crime has advanced
somewhat since then. The old,
clumsey methods of days gone by
have been superseded by the finer
tactics of the Buckley, McCord and
Morrow gangs, who buy juries,
sickeu District Attorneys, send wit
nesses into exile, pack primaries,
paralyze the police force, and have
an army of strikers, repeaters and
perjurers at their beck, all working
for money,
In the old days, when an honest,
indignant populace dealt swift
vengeance to municipal crime, no
one dared face the popular will,
which came down like the storm
from the mountain, until the feet OF
Justice stamped on PROSTATE wrong.
But all is changed now. The
same lawless current holds sway,
but when the press and the decent
element in the community attempt
to cleanse the place of its foulness
the best talent of the Bar of Cali.
fornia rises up to build legal bar
riers between the people and the
Jury bribers, and the mongers o
Judges in order to protect the
knaves who have robbed the widow
and orphan, and then take as a fet
the very swag that the wretche'
have secured by their dirty work IL
the courts.
We hope to see the time wheI
lawyers of standing will not be
smirch an honorable profession b,
burning the midnight oil to throw
safeguards round the persons
scamps who tamper with justice
At present the lawyers only look a
it from a mercenary standpoint al
guiug that the guiltier the client tn
higher the fee.
